From the kitchen of Mom (Mary April)

Overnight baked French toast became popular in American home cooking as families looked for ways to prepare holiday morning breakfasts the night before. For Mary April, whose kitchen was the center of family gatherings for decades, a dish that could be assembled on Christmas Eve and slid into the oven Christmas morning was exactly the kind of practical elegance she favored.
